This, always this. Be the you that makes YOU happy. That is always the right answer. No one else has to live as you.

Barely. We'll see where things are without it in the coming months. It's not the only food money, but...it is what makes rent viable. If things aren't remedied...well. This'll be one of those years. Shit, a year ago I actually had hope. Nebulous, very worried hope, but it was there. It's Spite now.

I mean, fair. It really can be cathartic.

Note how many of the same names are still major players in business and politics. They never went away. They were never punished. They simply...waited for an opportunity and worked on it in the background. Nixon didn't work out. Reagan wasn't enough. W moved the lever. Trump...is their guy? Maybe?

Just sharing this cartoon made by Niels again.
Shieldwalls are awesome.
Regularly check in with loved ones to make sure they're perhaps in need of a shieldwall.

Also, I really should have moved on into the theatre major instead of having enough theatre credits for a minor BEFORE entering college...and then going into a different field, and flaming out from health issues before I got off the ground. I'd been able to make theatre work for years around them.

I mean, plenty of us are also trying to make things better too, even the white ones... but then... I can't say if that's just us queer ones or not. On the other hand, gods yes people need to listen to you all more. So much more.

I'm vehemently against Respectability Politics because the people who hate us will continue to do so regardless of our Respectability. If the person is a fence sitter who can be convinced to ignore your personhood because of how you dress or whatever, I don't have time for them either.

Unless you’ve been on SNAP or had to be a cashier in a grocery store while someone discovers the insane restrictions placed on SNAP food choices, I simply think you should shut the hell up about food access.

They truly have NO understanding of the things they're talking about. Anyone who has lived on SNAP could lecture them in GREAT detail. You either get it, or, well... bad things happen. You starve. Sometimes even with it you starve, just less, depending on how much you're getting.

Maeve Harrison @maevelain.bsky.social · 8h

Often...less. But...if you are poor enough to need to use SNAP entirely paying that out of pocket isn't always an option. Or it is, but you'll have to make choices about things like clothes, or soap. Or just skip some meals. Some years to make sure my kids ate, my wife and I'd skip meals. A lot do.

Feckless cowards implies they actually oppose any of the actions and are afraid to act. I'm not sure they do. I think many are all in on the horribleness. That seems to be the brand. Reagan was literally 'Proto-Trump' and getting to this level of grift and power's been a long running goal for years.

i hope they make each other worse 🫶💕✨

a sketchy comic of critical role character's Tyranny (top panel) and Wicander (bottom panel). they are posed in a confessions booth, Tyranny, hands clasped and a mischievous look on her face says "sorry daddy, i've been a naughty girl-" and Wick, embarrassed and flustered, responds "by the light, Tyranny, it's "forgive me father, for i have sinned"

An easy way to explain to anyone (particularly those who vote for Trump) who's confused about who's to blame for SNAP benefits expiring, people furloughed from jobs, programs shut down, is this:

If Donald Trump weren't president, none of this would be happening

It was in 2000. We had to redo our characters in my ongoing college club game I was running for the shift, since people voted to change immediately. I remember the panic of Barbarians having DR... it was... hilariously overblown. Turned out people should have worried about Paladin/Bard gish instead.

Look, I first started playing back in the period when things were published for BOTH 1st Ed and 2nd Ed in all the source books. Went through all the Combat and Tactics stuff, and have played every edition since. Though 4th...well. We quickly went back to 3.5 for a reason.

Fox...where lies are the default, and AI it routinely treated as reality. I mean, it exists as a propaganda outlet, so no surprise but it's still disgusting.
